Wisconsin Transfer Stations: Common Questions

Are these all transfer stations in Wisconsin?

This page lists the transfer stations, landfills, convenience centers, and drop-off sites we have on file for Wisconsin. It is not a complete municipal registry. Your county or city solid-waste department may run additional sites, especially seasonal or residents-only convenience centers.

Can I drop off household trash at these Wisconsin facilities?

Most accept household garbage and bulky items, but rules vary. Some take the general public, others serve only commercial haulers, and county convenience centers may require proof of residency. Check the individual listing or call before you go.

Do Wisconsin transfer stations charge a fee?

Usually yes. Tipping fees are commonly charged by weight or by load, with extra charges for tires, mattresses, appliances, and construction debris. Some county-run convenience centers are free for residents because they are funded by local taxes.
